Yah, sometimes I use them sometimes not. Depending on the post. Maybe it is a bit confusing because you get the feeling you write some original content and want to mark it as such.
But I try to stick to the communities anyway, so I don't really use them as a vote catcher. But it is nice to gain xtra attention outside of a specific community as it may attract others to the one you're posting in as well.
Lol, am I confusing you...I confuse myself 😂 .
And no, haven't met @beautifulbullies yet. Might stalk that profile really quick 🙃
